Malawi goes organic & eco

Eco Products Limited, based in Malawi, is an experienced company involved in growing, processing and selling dry spices for local and export markets.

The company has a plot of 50ha available and wants to start a horticultural project for growing organic products like fresh spices, cucumbers, Irish potatoes, sweet potatoes, water melons and/or marketable products. The unique selling point is the consistent supply of these products due to the very good climate.

Eco Product Ltd. is searching for a partner who:

• distributes organic fresh products in the European market;

• wants to transfer knowledge and share experiences with organic farming to Eco Products and the out growers, to grow products that meet international standards (including the right certification);

• attaches a great deal of value to Corporate Social Responsibility in doing business. The kind of out grower scheme will bring alternative income to the unemployed in rural areas.

• is preferably interested in jointly investing with Eco Products in setting up a modern processing facility. Grant money might be available for such a joint project;

The owner of the Malawian company is coming to the Netherlands in Q4 2012 and would like to get in touch with potential partners.
